Pit Bull Dog Bites Teen

{Lexington, Kentucky}...A 16 year old boy was taken to University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital on the Fourth of July after a pit bull bit him in the groin. Lexington paramedics were called to a fireworks stand behind Thornton's on Woodhill Drive in Lexington where Megan Childers of Lexington, who was operating the fireworks stand, said her 2 year old dog Saint had bitten a boy in the groin. Childers said the dog had been staked to the ground on a leash behind the tent. Animal control cited Childers' fiance, Terry Spencer of Winchester, for having a dog without a license. Childers said they were told to take the dog home and keep it quarantined.
